I suppose the executive committee of the Pima County Republicans is more authoritarian than conservative. In the eyes of many Republicans, police and military personnel can do no wrong. If breaking down the door without knocking and proceeding to murder the home’s resident is right use of police authority, then we might as well repeal the 4th amendment because it doesn’t mean anything anyway.
Miller opened his big mouth without having access to all the important evidence. By getting out in front of the event and appearing to pander unnecessarily to the Mexican-American community, he did himself no good and managed to split the Republicans. There are two sides to this story, and those who have opposed Miller have NOT joined the Dupnik camp.
